Another source told Fox News that the port was unofficially controlled by Hezbollah, thus pointing out that other adverse players in the region could have played a role.
An Israeli government official said Israel "had nothing to do" with the blast. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the matter with the media. Israeli officials usually do not comment on "foreign reports."

Why is the irony lost on these people that they are in fact in total support of subverting American Democracy?
In New York it took months to validate a local election this year.
In Paterson, NJ, it was reported that a City Council Election there had to discount close to 20% of the ballots.
So while the left took the bait and blew a gasket over Trump's Tweet, not one of them seemed to mention how dangerously unreliable Mail In Voting has proven to be just this year alone.
They know Mail In Voting will result in massive fraud and throw the public into a further tail spin, and they are scared to death that Trump will beat them at their own game.

Trump on Bill Clinton in 2015:  “Nice guy…Got a lot of problems coming up with the famous island with Epstein”

That 's not all .
Just this week in 2020 Trump alluded to the fact he thinks Jeffrey Epstein may not have killed himself at all ( hmmm , where have I heard that before ? )
and that he may have BEEN killed in prison .
President Trump suggested in an interview aired Monday that multimillionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein might have been killed while in federal custody — putting him at odds with his own attorney general and the New York City medical examiner , who have both said Epstein died of suicide .
In an interview with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ asked Trump why he had recently offered well wishes to Ghislaine Maxwell , a former girlfriend of Epstein who was charged by federal prosecutors with recruiting and grooming underage girls for Epstein to abuse .
“ Her friend or boyfriend was either killed or committed suicide in jail , ” Trump responded .
“ She ’ s now in jail .
Yeah , I wish her well .
I ’ d wish you well .
I ’ d wish a lot of people well .
Good luck .
Let them prove somebody was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ saying you hope she doesn ’ t die in jail ?
” Swan sought to clarify .
“ Is that what you mean by ‘ wish her well ’ ?
” “ Her boyfriend died in jail .
And people are still trying to figure out how did it happen , ” Trump said .
“ Was it suicide ?
Was he killed ?
And I do wish her well .
I ’ m not looking for anything bad for her.
” Before President Trump wished Ghislaine Maxwell ‘ well , ’ they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gilded circles Epstein , who was taken into custody in July 2019 on charges that he sexually abused young girls , was found unresponsive and hanging in his cell the following month , and the New York City medical examiner concluded that he had died of suicide by hanging .
But the circumstances of his death , coupled with his wealth and connections to powerful people , have long fueled conspiracy theories about the case .
A medical examiner hired by Epstein ’ s family has raised questions about government authorities ’ conclusion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in particular to what he saw as unusual fractures in Epstein ’ s neck that he told “ 60 Minutes ” are not common in a suicide by hanging .
In the wake of the death , Attorney General William P. Barr asked the Justice Department ’ s inspector general to investigate the matter as the FBI probed for possible criminal wrongdoing .

Oh my….
Do you remember this?
I do!
I remember when it happened I was actually watching live and I filed it away in the back of my mind.
Who knew it would come to pass so soon, only a few years later?
In case you haven't seen this before, here is Donald Trump in 2015 at CPAC asked about his opinion on Bill Clinton.
His response?
Ummmm, nice guy…..got a lot of problems coming up in my opinion with that famous island, the Epstein island."
Did he know this was all coming?
Has he been planning it all along?
Has Trump been holding the cards all the way back to 2015 and just watching them twist in the wind as he toys with them?
You could start to make that case.

Ok folks, this is a special article….
It is dedicated to all those "helpful idiots" on Facebook parroting the Democrat party line, telling all of us a mask is for the greater good!
Meanwhile, Conservatives sure tend to think it feels a lot like censorship.
A lot like "covering our mouths".
A lot like a Burka.
It just feels WRONG.
But all the Lefties on Facebook constantly mock anyone who says a mask is for silencing people.
Well?
Mock no more.
It just happened to Jim Jordan in Congress.
Agiting Democrats with the truth, they began to melt down and finally one lost control and shouted in what I can only describe as a Demonic voice (for real, listen to it): PUT YOUR MASK ON!
It's so clear from the context of the clip that the mask in that context has NO relationship to stopping a virus (as if a cloth mask could anyway).
No.
The man very well should have just said SHUT YOUR MOUTH!

Watch the sheriff ’ s announcement right here :

Watch the news recently and you may have noticed there’s been a breakdown of law and order in this country.
“Protesters” feel free to burn down government buildings, tear down statues, and terrorize businesses.
And who’s choosing to support these violent mobs?
Democrats!
Well Arizona’s Pinal County Sheriff, Mark Lamb, is fighting back against these radicals.
He’s created a Citizen’s Posse so that residents can be deputized and assist in maintaining peace.
Fox News reports on the story:
In an Arizona county, criminals will soon face a new order of the law: “Citizens Posse.” The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office will allow residents to be deputized to help law enforcement keep the peace. “As Sheriff of Pinal County, I am given the authority to deputize civilians to assist in law enforcement,” Sheriff Mark Lamb said. “While we hope such an action is never required, we want to make sure those willing to step into the role are trained and ready.” The office said the program is open to all residents. After residents have a minimal background check and sign a waiver, they will learn the basics of constitutional law, search and seizure, basic firearm safety, home safety, and the use of force before being deputized.
Thankfully we have a President and sheriffs like Lamb willing to protect law-abiding citizens from the unhinged BLM and Antifa members.

From Fox News , here is more on James Comey `` going rogue '' : Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that when the FBI interviewed then-incoming national security adviser Michael Flynn in January 2017 , it was done without her authorization , and that she was upset when she found out about it .
Committee chairman Sen. Lindsey Graham , R-S.C. , asked Yates about the circumstances surrounding the interview , particularly the actions of then-FBI Director James Comey .

Yates said she was `` irritated '' with Comey for not telling @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which took place on Jan. 5 , 2017 , was of great interest to Graham , who wanted to know why Obama knew about Flynn 's conversations before she did .
Graham and other Republicans have speculated that Obama wanted Flynn investigated for nefarious purposes .
Yates claimed that this was not the case , and explained why Obama was aware of the calls at the time .
Yates said that after Obama placed sanctions on Russia , the Kremlin vowed to take retaliatory action , only to suddenly change course .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ why , which led to the Justice Department discovering Flynn 's talks with Kislyak .
Those discussions included a conversation about sanctions that Obama had placed on Russia , with Flynn encouraging Russia not to retaliate too harshly because the incoming Trump administration would be different from Obama 's .
`` The purpose of this meeting was for the president to find out whether – based on the calls between Ambassador Kislyak and Gen. Flynn – the transition team needed to be careful about what it was sharing with Gen. Flynn , '' @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was not about influencing an investigation , which `` would have set off alarms for me .

welovetrump--2020-08-05--ABC Ignores Leaked Video of George Floyd Arrest; CBS & NBC Caught Editing Out “Stop Resisting”

Do n't you think it 's strange how George Floyd was the BIGGEST story for weeks and for months ?
It was all the media could talk about ...

Should n't they be interested in covering the facts ?
Here 's how the Daily Mail described the body cam footage : Bodycam footage from two cops accused in the murder of George Floyd is revealed exclusively by DailyMail.com today — and it shows a rookie officer terrifying Floyd by pointing a handgun @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a pebble from the squad car tire just inches from the dying man and seconds before he draws his last breath .
The tapes show in minute detail how a very distressed Floyd begs 'Mr .
Officer , please do n't shoot me .
Please man , ' before the struggle that ended with his death on May 25 .
It also shows how belligerent cops cursed at and manhandled the sobbing suspect , ignoring his pleas for compassion .
Floyd resisted as the cops tried to force him into the back of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from claustrophobia and anxiety and how Officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes , leading to his death , ignoring Floyd ’ s repeated cries of ‘ I can ’ t breathe.

Transcripts from the videos were released in mid-July but a judge in Minneapolis had ruled the video could only be viewed in the courthouse , meaning few people have had the chance to watch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has now been leaked to DailyMail.com so the world can finally see the tragedy of Floyd ’ s last minutes as the cops were mindless of Floyd ’ s anguish .
The footage includes more than 18 minutes from Officer Alex Kueng 's bodycam and 10 minutes from Officer Thomas Lane .
They were the first two cops to arrive on the scene after a complaint that Floyd had attempted to pass a fake $ 20 bill to buy cigarettes at Cup Foods , a store in the Powderhorn Park section of Minneapolis @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tou Thao , were called in to assist .
All four were fired the day after Floyd 's death .
Chauvin , 44 , has been charged with Floyd 's murder and the other three face charges of aiding and abetting murder .
The events have led to months of Black Lives Matter protests throughout the country over police racism and brutality .
The two officers ' bodycam videos have been filed with Hennepin County District Court by Lane 's defense attorney .
It is clear from the video that Floyd was not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plenty of time to leave the scene before police arrived .

It is no question that Floyd 's death is a tragedy .

A victory for safe, secure voting by mail in Nevada. https://t.co/ZZgCkD101Y — Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) August 3, 2020
Our friends at Fox News had more details on the newly-filed lawsuit:
The Trump campaign and the Republican National state and national committees late Tuesday filed a lawsuit against Nevada over expanded mail-in voting for the November election. The lawsuit claims Assembly Bill 4, which would allow ballots to be mailed to all registered voters in the state, will undermine the election’s “integrity,” FOX 5 in Las Vegas reported. Do You Want A Free 1oz 99.9% Pure Silver Trump Coin? “Republicans have always supported efforts to make it easier for voters to cast their ballot,” the lawsuit, filed in a district court against Nevada Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske, said. “At the same time, however, the electoral process cannot function properly if it lacks integrity and results in chaos. Put simply, the American people must be able to trust that the result is the product of a free and fair election.” Gov. Steve Sisolak, a Democrat, signed the bill on Monday after it passed the state legislature along party lines, the Nevada Independent reported. Sisolak tweeted the bill “ensures protections for Nevadans to vote safely at the November election during the pandemic.”
President Trump is not totally against mail-in voting, he’s touted praise for the State of Florida on how they handled mail-in voting.
What he really opposes is a liberal Governor just waking up and issuing a bill that screams public safety but the motive is to sway an election.
Listen to President Trump’s opinion on mail-in voting.

What has Dr. Fauci done that advances equality — as these leftists define this — advance equality , justice , and human rights @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Fauci ’ s supposed to be the nation ’ s foremost expert on vaccines .
That doesn ’ t seem to have a whole lot to do with social change , but what do I know ?

Oh .

But that's not all.
Dr. Fauci will also receive an award for "commitment to social change."
Guess who else is receiving the award...
Colin Kaepernick.
Rush Limbaugh discussed Kennedy Jr.'s claims against Fauci as well as the award on his program:
Look at this. Dr. Fauci and Colin Kaepernick are gonna receive the award for commitment to social change. Oh, by the way, last night I guess there was an NBA game. The players kneeled again.

But this is very telling. Dr. Fauci, Colin Kaepernick being bestowed the RFK Nipple of Hope Award — sorry. Ripple. Ripple. What did I say, nipple? Well, that could actually work here, the Nipple of Hope Award. RFK, that’d be Robert F.

Oh.

You know, weeding through the news today and making sure that you don’t get fooled by some wild-ass conspiracy theories, it’s getting tougher and tougher and tougher to do.
Anyway, Dr. Fauci is supposed to be our foremost expert on vaccines, which I don’t know what vaccines have to do with social change. I mean, in a political sense. I don’t know of a vaccine that Dr. Fauci has helped developed. He tried. Everybody was trying to find an AIDS vaccine, but we don’t have one. Zika? No, we don’t have one. Ebola?

You know what? I know what it is. Social change is locking down the country. Dr. Fauci’s constantly agitating for that, is he not? That would be social change, as in destroying the economy.
